Chapter 139: Dating the Storm (Part 2)
Seeing Jia Huan's carriage disappear at the entrance of the village, Lai Sheng returned to the living room from the entrance of the courtyard in a relaxed mood. Jia Zhen was asking the servant to arrange food and keep Jia Lian and Feng Ziying for wine in Tongjia Village.
Jia Zhen was in a very good mood at this time and said to the two with a smile: "In the mountains and fields, there are some novel fruits and vegetables. The two brothers stayed to have a drink with me."
Feng Ziying refused in a low mood, "Really speaking, Brother Zhen invites a drink, I will stay for a cup no matter what. However, if something is going to happen tomorrow, I dare not stay outside the city for a long time. I can only receive it next time."
Jia Zhen and Jia Lian did not force Feng Ziying to keep him. The two brothers sent him to the gate of the courtyard. After Feng Ziying's carriage left, Jia Zhen sneered and said to Jia Lian: "In my opinion, Brother Feng really has the intention to speak for Brother Huan today. It's his reputation for chivalrousness. No wonder he has a broad friendship in the capital."
This sentence was a little bit ridiculous, and Jia Lian laughed, "Brother Feng is such a person. Otherwise, Brother Huan would be relieved to let me be an intermediary with him."
Jia Zhen laughed and invited Jia Lian to have a drink.
…
Feng Ziying's carriage left Tongjia Village and headed straight towards the capital. At this time, it must be impossible to catch up with the time when the inner city gate was closed. But he was depressed today and really didn't want to stay in Tongjia Village for too long.
You know, he is ready to speak for Jia Huan. He has thought about a few sets of rhetoric. But how did Jia Huan do it?
He gave in to Jia Zhen as soon as he entered the door, and it would be better to please Jia Zhen to give me some medicinal wine. It was really hard for him to search for such medicines for a ten-year-old boy. This flattery is great!
Feng Ziying was very disappointed with Jia Huan's behavior and looked down on Jia Huan in his heart. He did not plan to interact with Jia Huan again. He also praised Jia Huan as a Qianlijiao of the Jia family. Jia Huan's fame is said to have been passed to Jinling. But now, he is so cowardly! He is really a silver spearhead!
After all, he is just a child! No matter how smart and capable he is, he still does not have the great wisdom of life. How can this be handled like this? Mr. Longjiang, Shatixue, Governor Zhang, and Mr. Qi, these people are not better than asking for Jia Zhen? Jia Zhen’s appetite is not so easy to satisfy.
Feng Ziying felt very disappointed and arrived at the outer city of the capital in the night.
In the original book of the Red Chamber, Feng Ziying was chivalrous and a decent person. Zhi Yanzhai commented: The Four Heroes of the Red Chamber. However, at this time, Feng Ziying, one of the Four Heroes of the Red Chamber, did not know Jia Huan’s plan!
…
After Feng Ziying left, Jia Zhen and Jia Lian placed wine in the main hall in Tongjia Village. Jia Rong accompanied him. The servant lit the mosquito repellent and candles, and placed fruits, vegetables, pork, and chicken. The dishes were not cooked exquisitely, but they were still in the mouth and had some rural flavor.
The living room was as bright as day. Lai Sheng was very handsome in front of Jia Zhen. When he came in to have a glass of wine, he smiled and reminded him with a smile: "Uncle, you should be careful of Master Huan's third debt."
Jia Zhen laughed complacently, "He dares to make a decision! No need to worry about him." After sending Lai Sheng, Jia Zhen asked Jia Lian with a smile, "Brother Lian, how sincere do you think Brother Huan is today?"
Jia Lian smiled and drank the rice wine brewed in the village, "Brother Zhen, let me tell the truth. As far as I have come into contact with Brother Huan'er, he is very respectful to his brother. The trouble with Baoyu is uncountable. Whether he is sincere or forced today, Brother Zhen can check in with peace of mind. Brother Huan's economic level is unquestionable."
He admired Brother Huan's business level very much. It is not an exaggeration to praise him for "turning stones into gold". In fact, Brother Zhen had discussed with him before asking for shares in the brick kiln, but he just got advice from Brother Huan and turned around and cheated people. This was not his style of Master Lian.
Of course, this is just Jia Lian’s own thoughts.
Objectively speaking, there are two real reasons why Jia Lian did not follow Jia Zhen to deal with Jia Huan in the matter of Brick Kiln Shares. First, Jia Zhen was in charge of this matter and he couldn't get much soup.
Second, Jia Huan directed Jia Lian's business in the rouge shop, and the profits were very generous. Jia Huan naturally would not offend Jia Huan for this small profit.
He turned around and cheated Jia Huan. Jia Lian might have some psychological disorders. But if the amount of money is large, he will still be moved. Listen to Jia Lian's beautiful concubine Ping'er's comment on him: "Our second master has the temper, and he still needs to find out the money in the oil pan to spend."
Jia Zhen smiled happily to Jia Lian and said, "This is reasonable. Brother Huan's gift is very suitable for me. Although it is not useful, I think it is a good thing. Brother Lian wants to share half of it?"
He knew what it means to strengthen the foundation and cultivate the essence. He had thirty-four and five years of this year, and he had it when he was unable to do so. Jia Huan's gift was very suitable for his wishes. The confidant servant around him properly put it away. Of course, the conditions for use were too harsh. He usually had prescriptions from imperial doctors to take care of his body.
Jia Lian laughed and said, "Brother is still young. I don't want to ban women who are three months old. I don't want it."
Jia Zhen and Jia Rong both laughed happily.
Jia Zhen looked at Jia Rong and thought of the charming Youwu in Xiangshan again, and her heart felt hot.
After drinking, Jia Lian left Tongjia Village overnight in a carriage and returned to the capital. He believed Jia Huan's words. Later, the medicine attacks would occur in the evening, and it would be painful to stay in this mountain village without a woman. In the outside of the capital, he had a few sisters who were close friends.
When Jia Lian left, Jia Zhen looked at Jia Rong and ordered, "You go to the mountain to pick up your wife tomorrow." He was about to make trouble for Qin's family to be in peace in Qixia Temple. See if Princess Qixia is willing to take Qin's family in?
Jia Rong did not dare to disobey, so she agreed helplessly. She went back to the room to rest, looked at Langlang Mingyue under the eaves, and her emotions surged in her heart. Jia Huan's performance today really made him despise him.
He knew that Baozhu went to Jia Huan for help. That's all. He was just looking down in front of his father and giving in. Keqing thought he had found a savior, but he just found a soft boy.
…
Jia Rong took a bus up the mountain the next morning to Qixia Temple. He gave the Taoist nun money, arranged to pass messages, and arranged to wait in the room where he met the guests.
Just as Jia Rong was waiting, an exquisite carriage slowly climbed up the mountain from the foot of the mountain. In late spring, the sunlight fell from the gaps in the forest in Qixia View halfway up the mountain. The mountain scenery is beautiful and refreshing.
At this time, Qin Keqing was wearing a light pink dress and delicately shaped, kneeling in a quiet room in Qixia Temple, silently reciting the Taoist scriptures to calm her anxiety, fear, despair and sorrow.
She doesn't know the outside world yet.
He was silently reciting the sentence in the Taoist scripture: Heaven and earth are not kind, and treat all things as straw dogs; saints are not kind, and treat the people as straw dogs. The door of the quiet room was pushed open, and the female in charge of the affairs, Zhang Daogu, came in and said coldly: "Qin, the master of Guan is looking for you." She had been in a bad relationship with Qin Keqing for a long time.
Qin Keqing's face turned a little pale, and she was nervous. She followed the in charge of the businessman to an exquisite house. A girl in her sixties was sitting in a couch and drinking tea. Several maids and servants served each other in silk and satin. Seeing Qin Keqing come in, the room was quiet while talking and laughing.
Qin Keqing gave a gentle salute, "Qin has met the master of the audience."
The owner, Princess Qixia, was dressed in gorgeous clothes and had a thin face. She had the leisure and purity of a woman in her temperament, and was peaceful and uncontested by the world. She sighed lightly and reached out to signal Qin Keqing to avoid the gift. She looked like a beautiful woman with a very good temperament.
After thinking about it, Princess Qixia said, "Qin, your five roots are not pure, and your relationship is not over. It is so inconvenient to practice in Taoist temples. You should go back!" The Jia family is also a family of princesses. As an old princess who has lost the royal favor, she does not want to get involved in the family affairs of the Jia family. She protects Qin and doesn't know who to offend.
Qin Keqing lowered his head and said tears: "Looking at the master, I feel pity for my husband. My relationship with me has broken down and I don't want to go back. I just want to serve the Three Pure Land for life."
She was a very smart woman. She knew that her husband Jia Rong came to see her every day during this period, which made the viewer dissatisfied. But this was not something she could control. After Baozhu reported the message, she no longer believed a word Jia Rong said.
Princess Qixia scolded: "Idiot! Some unsatisfactory life is common. How can we women live without relying on our husbands? I think your husband is also sincere. Just let him go."
Qin Keqing was full of bitterness. How could she say that Jia Zhen’s bird-beasted thing? When the matter broke out, I was afraid that the mistake would fall on her. People would only accuse her of being good at being good at charming, being beautiful, being lustful, and being lustful.
Qin Keqing begged hard, but Princess Qixia just disagreed.
Looking at the great beauty Qin Shi kneeling on the ground and crying and begging each other, Zhang Daogu was unhappy. She wanted to make a cut on the woman's white and smooth face and said angrily: "Qin Shi, you are so ungrateful! The master has explained the reason. You still have to pester it! Your husband comes to pick you up, why don't you go back?"
After scolding someone a few words, Qin Keqing's face suddenly turned red and anger surged from the bottom of her heart. However, she was weak and would not curse people as happily as her aunt (Feng Jie).
At this moment, Qin Keqing's maid Baozhu came in panting under the leadership of a girl Guan. The girl returned to Princess Qixia and said that Baozhu brought Mr. Longjiang's letter.
Princess Qixia was a little happy and a little strange, "Why did my cousin send me a letter? Come and show me."
Baozhu took out the letter from his arms. A maid took it away and handed it to Princess Qixia. Princess Qixia looked at a few lines, smiled on her face, then nodded, and said to Daogu Zhang sternly: "You are a little violent all day long, and you have removed your position as a manager first. Go to the kitchen to do things and reflect on yourself."
Daogu Zhang was stunned. How could this happen? What she said to Qin Keqing just now was very conscious of the viewer's ideas? She saw the satisfaction in the viewer's eyes.
Several maids and servants were all surprised. Princess Qixia said to Qin Keqing with a happy face: "Qin, since my cousin pleads for you, you can live in Guanli with peace of mind. I will send someone to your husband."
Qin Keqing didn't know how Baozhu brought back such an important letter, so he hurriedly thanked: "Thank you, Master Guan."
A storm in Qixia Temple was eliminated like this. The crisis of Qin Keqing being driven out was resolved. Zhang Daogu, who had been targeting her, was sent to the kitchen to work as a coolie.
…
Qin Keqing and Baozhu left the house and tears came down. The master and servant met again after nearly ten days, and they were both crying like rain, and they were extremely happy. Then this was not the place to speak.
Back in the room, Qin Keqing took Baozhu's hand and sat on the edge of the bed, and asked with tears in his eyes: "Baozhu, tell me quickly, what's going on? Have you met Uncle Huan?"
Baozhu nodded vigorously, smiled happily, and replied sobbingly: "Grandma, the third master is here to save you! He went to Tongjia Village yesterday to meet the master. He arranged for me to live in Mr. Longjiang's villa.
I came back last night and told me that things would pass. Then, this morning, I gave me a letter from Mr. Longjiang and sent a carriage to take me up the mountain. Grandma, we are saved."
"Uh-huh."
Qin Keqing covered her face and cried bitterly. This time, she was happy. The despair and sadness in her heart were dispelled. The gratitude rushed in like a big river.
"Where is Uncle Huan?"
"At the foot of the mountain, the third master said he would meet again in the future."
…
When Jia Rong was anxious when she was waiting in Qixia Temple, she drove out the female crown of Qixia Temple. She spoke ill of him and told him not to come again in the future.
This made Jia Rong so angry that she stood at the door of Qixia Temple, gritting her teeth hatefully and cursed in her heart.
If he knew that his treatment at this time was caused by Jia Huan whom he despised last night, would he still have the confidence to sarcastically sarcastically said "soft egg"?
